About

Ben Sourbeer’s research centers on accessible robotics, with a focus on developing low-cost, high-performance platforms that bridge the gap between education and advanced research. His most notable contribution is the RoSCAR platform, a 1/10-scale robotic race car integrated with on-board computing, odometry, and RGB-D sensing. Designed for affordability and versatility, RoSCAR enables students and researchers to explore autonomous navigation, control systems, and sensor integration without prohibitive costs. Though his work has garnered modest citation counts—with RoSCAR cited three times since 2014—its impact lies in its practical utility as a teaching and prototyping tool. Sourbeer’s emphasis on open-source design and real-world applicability has made RoSCAR a valuable resource in academic settings, fostering hands-on learning in robotics curricula. His contributions exemplify how thoughtful engineering can democratize access to cutting-edge technology, inspiring a new generation of roboticists to experiment and innovate.
